Hi  there Julio E S R Simoes,

Since I reported this bug some 5 years ago, I don't need your posturising that this is anything to do with BIOS.  If I was like you, I'd suggest that 
"If you don't know what's Bios, get back to Windows. Or MacOS."

Meanwhile. I'll un-subscribe from this bug.  Cheerio.

Title:
  Live CD for i386: ISOLINUX 3.36 (on 7.10) and 3.53 (on 8.04) hang at
  "loading . . ." before Ubuntu boot loader; 3.31 (Feisty 7.04) was OK

Bug description:
  I burnt the 7.10 kubuntu release candidate CD (original MD5 not
  available on web page) from using k3B - and verified the burnt disk as
  OK from the ISO I downloaded.

  Source was:
  http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu-releases/kubuntu/7.10/kubuntu-7.10-rc-desktop-i386.iso

  Back on my Via CL Eden 600MHz PC (the test install) it loads as far
  as:

  ISOLINUX 3.36 Debian . . . Peter Anvin
  Loading . . . _

  And that's it.

  The Via CL was quite happily running 7.04 prior to being wiped for
  this trial.

  Please feel free to contact me at owen_pg at yahoo.com - although I
  wouldn't know what else to say :-(

  Cheers and good luck.

  Owen
